Lady Gaga, Amy Winehouse, Martin Luther King Jr.’s Letters to Tony Bennett Being Offered at Auction


Letters from Lady Gaga, Amy Winehouse and even Martin Luther King Jr. will be sold at the 'Tony Bennett: A Life Well Lived' auction on April 26.

The trove of items includes rarities addressed to Bennett from stars like Lady Gaga, Amy Winehouse, Madonna, Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Quincy Jones and Barbra Streisand, among others. The archives also include microphones from Benett’s live shows and paintings Bennett both collected and created himself, and even a San Francisco cable-car bell given to him after he’d supported then-Mayor Dianne Feinstein’s campaign to rebuild the city’s system in the ’80s. “Julien’s is honored to represent his Estate and celebrate Mr. Bennett’s extraordinary legacy at this once in a lifetime auction event at Jazz at Lincoln Center with exhibitions at two cities that were most dear to his heart, New York and San Francisco.”
